OK, Cagney, thanks for the info. I hope it settles down for you...
At least I have an account I can log into so I'll leave it for now and try again when it's all moved

So... if you are keeping the gaga forums and content am I right in thinking it will be presented to us in the format that is now up and just about running 'over there' and we lose this long established forum format?

If you guys know of anyone else, please let me know. I've been able to fix the password problem by re-setting passwords as needed. I'm going offline for the mo, but will check in a bit later.

One more question Lori. I opted out of using PM's. If I have a problem getting in here I wouldn't have a way of asking any FM to let you know I can't get in like some can. Would I need to use the Contact Us to get help ? - if I need it. Thanks

Hiya Lori! You poor things... you must be going insane with all of us dolts!  However, I've spoken to poor greenandpink... she can't get in either, but I think it may be because she didn't realise to use the 'I have a LiveCloud account' box. Either way, she thinks she's mucked it up... she's gone out for a couple of hours now, but maybe you could fix her for when she gets back? Ta ever so!

Funny--I just emailed her! I've flipped a switch over here and muttered an incantation or two (hope I didn't inadvertently turn her into a frog!). I'll wait for her response....

Thanks so much Lori! I hope the incantations she was uttering didn't turn you into a handsome prince ... or worse, then!

Hang tight for the rest of it. If you give it a chance, you might like it. Remember that you'll still have the community--the rest of the format you only have to use if you want to! To those of you with login problems: You can still log in HERE, apparently (since you are posting). We'll have a look at the login problems you are experiencing over there early next week, OK? To those of you with the stack trace errors: I was told it was restricted to IE6, but it looks like that isn't necessarily so. Note that we are still working on the fix for that, so please be patient! Once we fix the KNOWN error, we'll find out if it's still happening on other browsers and versions. Let's see...did I leave out anything? I know change can be hard...
Re: The password problem:- I was unable to log-in last night initially, however after thinking about it for a while, I tried my password without capitals...and it logged me in. Therefore, in the change over your system changed my password, even though Dave said it shouldn't do that. Hope this might help.

Just hsd a further thought about the password. When i logged into the temporary home my password was all small letters, when i then registered here I used the same password but made some of the letters capitals. Has maybee the system not changed my password, as such, but transferred the 'Groupee' version instead of the 'GaGa' version?

Yes, that is exactly right.
If you were previously registered on the Groupee system (now LiveCloud) your Groupee password will take precedence when the two accounts are merged.

Hi Lori.  A Gaga member named "Kyla" is unable to log in at the moment. It keeps asking her to verify her email address but then when she does that it still won't let her log in. Thanking you in advance for your help.

I have just registered on the new site. It would not allow me to register as Twee Surgeon, so I opted for just 'twee'. When the switchover is implemented, which of the two names will I use to log in, please?
1. Twee Surgeon, or 2. twee
Would you also kindly let me know why I could not have a capital T for twee, and why the system changed it to lower case t.
Thank you very much.

How about a margarita?  So, I've had to ask for help with people who are suffering from the "email verification" issue. Hoping we can get that squared away soon. Twee Surgeon, I see that there are some bands named Twee (or with Twee in their names), but I have NO idea why it wouldn't let you choose Twee Surgeon. I'll ask, though! *wishes she were more technical*

Hi, Twee:
Usernames on LiveCloud are all lowercase, since they are used to derive your personal area identifier (yours is twee.user.livecloud.com). That's also why Twee Surgeon isn't allowed, since there is a space.
You can set that to your Display Name, however, which is what people see when you post. Your display name is set to Mary Kelly for now. You can change that in your profile, if you'd like.

Firstly let me thank you for your's and Lori's kind replies to my post. In my defence, I made the post at 1.39am British Summer Time, which is the equivalent of your night time in America depending on your geographical area. I was quite tired when I made the post and I should have left it until today to ask my questions. Secondly, I am old and grey dyed blonde  and not computer literate. I fear change when I don't understand things. But thank you both for your kind replies, replies that made me feel less stupid than I would otherwise feel. That explanation out of the way, the lower case use is self-explanatory. The spacing between Twee and Surgeon also now makes sense, and I could still have the full name provided I left out the space. So far so good ... When you change over, I presume that the log-in screen will be different to today, and I will use the e-mail I registered with on Live Cloud last night. When I registered last night it would not allow me to use the existing name e-mail so I had to use one of my other e-mail addresses on AOL. I take it then that I use the new e-mail address on change over, to allow me full access to Live Cloud. Am I correct in this assumption? I didn't realise that my name Mary Kelly would be the one that would appear on the forum, I thought it would be twee. Oh dear! What can I say? I think at this point it would be appropriate for me to slink away and await your reply.

Hi Twee when I registered I had to register my ID name as essexangel, but then I've set my display name to Essex Angel. Go back to your settings and just reset Mary Kelly to Twee Surgeon. ID name and display name can be different. Hope this helps.

Essex, you are an absolute star. I have just done what you suggested and it works. Thank you very very much for your help. I now have to await Lori's or Steven's reply to establish the e-mail address to use when I log-in on changeover. Without the help of kind people like you on the forum, I would be lost Essex.

I have sent you a PM with all the information you requested Lori. This is also a first for me as I have never used the PM facility before, so I do hope you receive it ok.
